Lighting and yearly cycles is not really what I was after. But, I have corns that eat in shed, other spaz's that will eat daily then stop for a month.

My room temps do not vary in temps much at all.

Still the key is about males and building sperm. Northern snakes need it. Southern snakes don't, or not as much. but corns, span that range, and since no one, except those that collected their own SC's know the lineage of where their snake is from. Heck a creamsicle could be from 1 snake in Texas 1 in Florida and 1 in Virginia.

Lighting is a constant factor with all snakes. Again, the only reason I'm worried this year is I lost my brumation area. I had a corner of my basement where I left a window cracked, and snakes were in tubs all on heat pads set at 50 degrees.

I may try to make something to attach to a window in my room if I just do males? I have no cool walls. I live in a log home 10 inches of solid wood. Basement is even better insulated. I made it that way before I got back into herps.

I'll figure something out. But it was just odd I have this issue, and people started to post about not brumating corns.
